Jaffa 25th Anniversary October 2013

Jaffa 25th Anniversary October 2013, a set on Flickr.

Jewish Accommodation for Fellow Aged "JAFFA" celebrated its 25th Birthday last week in a gala function held at the home. Highlights of the evening were performances by Cyril Green and Nik Rabinowitz. A great time being had by all as is evidenced in the images.
JAFFA is one of the greatest homes of its kind that I personally have come across. The dedication of its management and staff is unequalled in other home and care facility that I personally have encountered. What, however jumps out at you is the total commitment and dedication of JAFFA's core of volunteers who unselfishly give of their time and resources to ensure that JAFFA remains the centre of excellence that it is.
Happy birthday JAFFA :)
